Tutorial - Summary Report

---

The Gantt Scheduler integrates mine design and scheduling into one package, removing the need to import/export or deal with different data and file formats. For current Vulcan users, this means you will no longer need to use a separate scheduling tool. Gantt Scheduler is easy to learn as the menu options, data structure, and terminology are consistent throughout Vulcan.
